Everything You Need to Know
Answers to the most common questions from international entrepreneurs starting a US LLC.
No. The entire process is 100% remote. You don't need a visa, SSN, ITIN, or physical presence in the United States. All you need is a valid passport and an internet connection. We handle all filings, applications, and paperwork on your behalf.
For most international entrepreneurs we recommend Wyoming (best privacy + low fees + no state income tax), New Mexico (cheapest at $50 filing + no annual reports), or Delaware (best reputation for investors). During your free consultation, we analyze your specific situation and recommend the optimal state.
LLC formation: 3–7 business days. EIN: 1–4 weeks (IRS processing). Complete setup with bank + Stripe: 7–14 business days total. Enterprise packages: up to 21 days. We keep you updated at every step via WhatsApp.
With a properly formed US LLC, EIN, US bank account (Mercury/Relay), US business address, and US phone number, the Stripe approval rate is 95%+. We've optimized the application process based on hundreds of successful applications. If any issues arise, we work with you until you're approved.
No SSN or ITIN is needed to get started. We obtain an EIN (Employer Identification Number) from the IRS, which works for banking and all payment gateways. An ITIN may be beneficial later for tax filing purposes, and we can assist with that when the time comes.
Absolutely. The United States actively welcomes foreign business owners. Non-residents forming US LLCs is completely legal, extremely common, and encouraged. Millions of international entrepreneurs have US LLCs — including founders of some of the world's biggest companies. There's nothing gray-area about this.
Most non-resident single-member LLCs treated as disregarded entities have minimal US tax obligations — typically just an annual informational filing (Form 5472). You generally won't owe US income tax if you're not operating within the US. Our Scale and Enterprise packages include a tax strategy call with a CPA who specializes in non-resident LLC taxation.
We offer a money-back guarantee on LLC formation. For bank and payment gateway applications — if declined, we work with you at no extra charge to either get approved on resubmission or set up an alternative. We don't give up until you have a working solution.
Just your passport (clear scan or photo) and basic business information — your preferred business name, a brief description of what you do, and your contact details. We prepare everything else: Articles of Organization, Operating Agreement, IRS forms, bank applications, and gateway configurations.
Starter: 7-day email support. Growth: 30-day priority WhatsApp + email support. Scale: 90-day VIP support. Enterprise: 6-month dedicated account manager. All packages include annual compliance reminders and registered agent renewal assistance.
We accept payment via Wise, Payoneer, bank wire, credit/debit card (via Stripe), USDT (crypto), and PayPal. You'll receive a proper invoice after your free consultation.
Yes. Multi-member LLCs are common and we draft a custom Operating Agreement that defines ownership percentages, profit splits, and management roles for all members — regardless of where they live.
Possibly — most countries tax their residents on worldwide income. Your home-country tax obligation is between you and a local tax advisor. We can refer you to specialists familiar with US-LLC-to-home-country reporting in many jurisdictions.
